again, the title has nothing to do with anything. it’s a line in a song i’ve been humming to myself on and off for a few days now. no, there’s no contest to see if anyone can place it. but it’s a badass song.
anyway.
that last post was a bit of a bummer, eh? old people losing their memory, slightly less old people smoking enough pot to lost their memory quickly. and… i’ve been working bits of overtime here and there. between bouts of schooling. of which i am halfway through, save the clinical craziness to happen in january. and a big exam happening next week. what’s that? you’d like to read a list? i’m happy to oblidge!
- i finally got my mom to admit that she’d like me to make her a pair of socks for christmas. and my dad would also like a pair. boot socks. dark colors, to hide the dirt and whatnot. i am seriously considering knitting her a shotgun cozy. because i think it would be funny.
- speaking of socks, there’s a sock yarn sale happening the second weekend of november. and since i’m actually going to need sock yarn to comply with my folks, i’m planning on buying a sack o’ yarn.
- speaking of weekends, i think i’m going to something called a ’sausage festival’. no, it is not a gathering of mostly men. it’s an actual festival of sausage, where there’s drinking at a gun club, some kind of weird dinner thing, and… uh… i’ve been asked to wear my chicken hat. did i mention i don’t have a date for this shindig? yes. good times. a girl in a chicken hat, going stag to a sausage festival. that sentence makes me laugh.
- speaking of laugh (the segues are cracking me up, anyway), my cat woke herself up snoring this afternoon. she then gave me this truly hateful look. something like, i know you’re responsible for this.
- and with no link to anything else i’ve yet mentioned, i ate a lot of wasabi peas a few minutes ago. they have a lot of wasabi on them. my eyes were tearing up, with all the spicy/ tangy/ whatever. the good news is, my sinuses are clear.
- i really want a pedicure.
- i’ve accomplished quite a bit of knitting, but haven’t been at home long enough to take pictures and download them. and… i just suck in general. my ravelry account looks so sad. but flickr’s hopping!
- i now have a looooong wish list of stuff i want to make. a pair of folk mittens, this fabulous cabled sweater thinger i saw one someone else’s site. i’m requesting the pattern book from the library to see if it’s something i can wrangle. my goal – and this is why i bring up the cute-as-hell mittens and the sweater to being with – is to have my unfinished knitting be totally finished by the end of the year, save for any socks i happen to have going, because they’re crack and since i only have one pair at a time, they don’t truly count. whew – evil run-on sentences. but, i’m well on my way to making that happen. it could be a real, like, event!
- i did wrangle from cecil that new year’s involves leaving the state. and that i’m driving. and that… i may need to take a few days off. curiouser and curiouser…
- i had a great massage on saturday. it was odd, in a way. the therapist lady left the need to inform me that she was a lesbian, and if i had a problem with that she’d be happy to hand me over to someone else. dude, i totally dont’ care which way you swing. just rub my ass. wow… i sound like my cat.
and so on. but now, i think there’s some cheese popcorn that needs to be eaten. i haven’t been eating enough the last few days, and maybe it’s catching up to me.
but hey! thanks for stopping by.
